The Meta CEO's comments on masculinity ignore the reality of systemic inequality and the harms of reinforcing aggressive corporate culture.

Zuckerberg did not use those exact words but did call for more masculine energy in corporations, saying they are "neutered" and are "trying to get away" from masculine energy, while a culture that "celebrates the aggression" has merits.

The co-founder of Facebook (now Meta) has become a social media icon. He doesn’t seem as reserved, measured, or rehearsed as he did in the past, preferring a more trendy style and upbeat demeanor. In recent months, he has also ditched his traditional gray shirts for a more eclectic wardrobe. He seems to be ditching a lot of other things as well.

Mark Zuckerberg wants more masculine energy at the social companies run by Meta. But his products are used by more women than men. Why is that?
